they were last year is one consolation,
although they are less than in any
other year since 1881, They will
amount to 500, 600, 900, or about $l2
for each individual member of the ma
tionsl family. The imports, unhappi-
ly, are greater than aince 1888, and
q within $50 100000 ofths vaius Of

this country, which prides itself upon
being able to produce and manufacture
everything necessary for the comfort
OF the human family, should have to
send 100000, 600 out Of the country
in year to buy merchandise.
Another interesting statement in
the work of the year Is that which
shows the number Of immigrants.s rriv-
ing. They will number for the year
just about q round half million, against
100000 last year. The number coming
in at the port of New York during the
year will foot up round 400, 1000. OF
the one.hali million arriving, about
10000 are Germans, rs, 900 from Eng

stores were destroyed. A dispatch to-
night says that the fire burned until
an early hour this morning, and that
but one house remains unscathed.
Half the population is still there, but
is suffering for want OF clothing. Sup

towns that answered the purpose tenn

that more provisions must be cent

HOPE FOR THE HAYMARKRT
Assasslns Under Sentence OF Death
"A Startling RumOr.

CHICAGO, ILL, June 2S.-The Dailv
NetDs says. A rumor no less startling
than that the Supreme Court had de-
cided to give the condemned Anar-
chists new trial, was put into indus
trious circulate: .c3:y. Ths ;ssttseiihii-
genee was to the effect that majority
Of the judges sitting on the Supreme
bench had decided in fav]r OF the
points submitted by Captain Black
and Leonard SWEET, why the sentence
pronounced by Judge Gary on the
Haymarket seeassins should not be
executed, at least before another hear.
ing was allowed the Condemned. The
origin Of the rumor, so far as 1t could
be traced, appeared to be in the civil
courts in the county building, and
early this afternoon the rumor that
the Anarchists we're indeed TO have
new trial was common talk among
lawyers. From these 1t was learned
that the report states that the Supreme
Court judges had already dictated
their opinion, and that the declaration
that this opinion was favorable to the
Anarchists came from court officials,
who had access to the documents.
The story, as it circulated this after
noon, occasioned a sensation in and
about the county building.
Capt. Black was considerably taken
back when the report was repeated TO
him. 81 have no information on the
subject" he said. II should be q lit
tie surprised at such an announce
ment at this time, but have never
faltered for an instant in tie abiding
and absolute conf ience that we shall
secure a reversal. The rumor may be
premature but it cannot be but pro-
phetic, in my judgment"

The Scissors VS.. the Pen.
Dubuque Herald.


Editor j. S. Clarkson. in Il review of
his twenty-one years connection with
the Des Moines Register, calls atten-
tion to the Importance and value Of the
clippings, the matter selected from
other newspapers, or as the technical
phrase is, the reprint" He correctly
states that "the editorial shears in the
hands of an editor entirely competent
are greater than the pen" Everybody
knows the old, old joke about the scis-
sors and clippings. Every newspaper
man has it constantly dinged into his
ears by people of all classes. and it is
the popular impression that there is no
skill, knowledge or experience required
to "clip." There was never greater
mistake. The proper use Of the editori-
al shears and the selection of reprint"
is Il knack not possessed by every news
paper man. OF course anybody can
run the shears through any newspaper
he may pick up and clip out quantity
Of matter. But when republisEed will
it make interesting reading? That is
the crucical question. No, it requires
newspaper education and experience to
use the shears SO as to make a paper
readable and interesting.
Any reader, whether familiar with
newspaper work or not, can prove this
for himself by glancing over a number
of different papers. In one he will find
selections that will strike his eye as in
teresting, and on reading them he is
not disappointed lie goes from one
piece to another and finds varied food
for the reading faculty. Theselections
are varied, some of this character and
some of another. Every class and age
will find some piece of particular inter.
est and suited to personal characteris
tics, The selections are from perhaps
as many other different papers, the
best piece selected from each, and
when together form collection of the
best newspaper work of the day. And
this in a paper that has man of the
right kind to handle the sheare is the
characteristic issue after issue. The
editor knows what selections are read
able and what are not, and clips ac
cordingly. And some papers present
a most uninteresting selection of clip
pings, pieces Of no interest and which
nobody reads. The right use of the
shears is not so easy as the preparation
of original editorial matter.
A paper can impress its constituency
with it's views on this subject OF or
that by the use of the shears without
printing line of original matter
This way of persuading and arguing is
frequently much more effective thar
by written editorials. On agood news
paper the shears are indeed mightie
than the pen.
